Favorite Paint Mods?

[grapedog]

In an effort to give some feedback to the devs, so they have a better idea in the future of what's really popular, I'd love to hear from people what their favorite paint mods are.

I'd have to say for a top 3 for me it's...

Warden
Foundation
Black Steel

I'd also love to see more "camo" options like vermillion and the vindicator.
It would also be awesome to paint a group of ships, if that was ever possible. Being able to have all my ships in a fleet sport a certain same look would be cool.

'Aldrin' and 'Origin Unknown'. I'de like to see many more solid colour paintjobs.

This is one of the failings of how paintjobs have been implimented imo. By making them so limited in number and at the same time making them so annoying to get (from the point of view of a person that doesnt like the online part of ventures and doesnt want to use it at all) I just dont have enough to make my ships uniform. So I end up just not using the system at all... which means I tend to be stuck with the horrible default dirty paintjobs. I dont think a brand new ship straight off the production line should be dirty like the default paintjobs/themes.
The engine colours are a constant thorn in my side too (hate hate hate them, probably why my favourite paintjobs are just white and silver... because basic tones can go with that offpink paranid engines have).

Really hope we get a 'paintshop' station module or something, that can paint our ships regardless of how 'many' paintmods we have.

+1 to both. Smokestack is also not bad. Obsidian X from CE is... disappointing

Guild/war missions give some. That's even faster than getting them through ventures, if perhaps more involved.

I don't think I've gotten any of the Obsidian X, but I like that one too! And Shade of Innocence. I don't think Shade would make it into a top 5 for me personally, but Obsidian would for sure.

Obsidian X and Foundation X are collector edition paint mods.

Interesting that now I noticed - Obsidian X is just upscaled Cold Steel:

I bought the collectors edition. How did I get the Foundation X, but not the Obsidian X....

[radcapricorn]

Ah wait, wasn't one of them the pre-order bonus?

How did you get this paint? I sent multiple 64h ventures I and never got this one.

I must be RNG, i've got maybe 3-4 of the Vindicator mods too.

Really hope we get a 'paintshop' station module or something, that can paint our ships regardless of how 'many' paintmods we have.

If you only have one paint mod you can apply it to multiple ships using the Wharf (S/M) or Shipyard (L/XL). (You do need two paint mods if you want both S/M and L/XL ships)

Simply dock one ship with the required paint mod and any others requiring it at the same station and go to the mod bench at the ship dealership, select the docked ship, the bottom paint brush option and click on the ships existing paint job (the one you wish to copy). Selecting any other ship docked at the station will allow you to apply this paint job.

I don't use many because I've starting using mods all the time and can't "venture", but actually of the ones I've seen so far I enjoy the faction paint schemes. I like to 'borrow' them.

There is a paint mod, which makes your ships chalk white. I love that one Gives a crazy contrast on the ships compated to the dark metallic surfaces.

I think you are talking about Captain Pearl (T3) paintmod, which is my favourite as well. I also like the more common Aldrin (T1) which has a light-grey secondary color. Personally I would prefer a pitch black or pink secondary color but that's life

Hehe, thanks for that - sounds like an exploit though ;p

It's a bug, there are quite a few of those on the equip screen.

Not sure it's a bug, been available since day one and mentioned in many previous posts without any attempts to fix it. Thought it was working as intended and you do need to acquire the paint mod before you can use it.

There are a great many things that have been more than mentioned (i.e. properly reported) forever ago without any visible traction.
